She is emphatic that Dorothy just needs to follow the yellow brick road. But you can't just follow it if there is a fork!

The Scarecrow was standing there and to guide her the rest of the way.

Glinda knew that the ruby slippers would take Dorothy in the right direction.

Because she's a big jerk lol! Same reason she didn't tell Dorothy she could have been home long before her life threatening journey by just clicking her heels! Maybe she'd use the excuse "Oh she wouldn't have believed me."

She must have forgotten about it or didn't really know as if you remember she travels by bubble, so she doesn't even need to worry about the street.

I agree with that, I just wonder if Dorothy had taken a different direction, would she have still met the same friends or different ones maybe.

Sunset Boulevard
as well.

I was amazed to learn that Billy Burke was 54 when she played Glinda. 54 was a LOT older then, than it is now.

I think because it doesn't matter which direction you take, you'd still end up in Emerald City.
Maybe each route takes you past different things (the one Dorothy chose led through the forest) but they all end up at the same destination.
